Yellowstone and Tulsa King star Neal McDonough has remained steadfast over the years about his no-kiss rule. The actor has always had it written into his contracts that he wouldn’t kiss a woman onscreen.

In a recent Nothing Left Unsaid podcast interview, McDonough opened up the impact his decision had on his career. “My wife didn’t have any problem with it. It was me, really, who had a problem with it,” he admitted. “When I couldn’t do it, and they couldn’t understand it, Hollywood just completely turned on me. They wouldn’t let me be part of the show anymore.”
